Assume the smaller one is x, then the other ones will be x+2 and x+4
x(x+2) + 2 = 5(x+4)
x^2 + 2x - 5x - 18 = 0
-> x^2 - 3x - 18 = 0
-> (x-6)(x+3) = 0
-> x = 6 or -3, since x must be positive, then x = 6
So the numbers are: 6, 8, 10
Answer: B, C, And F
Step-by-step explanation:
My answer is correct because, for the negative numbber whatever is close to 1 like -1 is greater then the other negative number.

Answer:
x = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
The two angles form a straight line so they add to 180 degrees
3+6x + 5x+12 = 180
Combine like terms
11x+15 = 180
Subtract 15 from each side
11x+15-15 =180-15
11x = 165
Divide by 11
11x/11 =165/11
x =15
Related angle is 45 degrees, set up a triangle and use exact trig values to solve for x and y, then rationalise the denominators
<span>x = number of domestic stamps
y = number of foreign stamps
Malik
collects rare stamps and has a total of 212 stamps.
=> x + y = 212
he has 34 more
domestic stamps than foreign stamps.
=> x = y + 34
which
equation represents the total number of stamps malik collected?
x + y = 212
which
equation represents the difference in the number of foreign and domestic
stamps malik collected?
x - y = 34
which system of linear equations represents the
situation?
x + y = 212
x - y = 34
